PURPOSE:

This qualification test program is the result of a request for SPS Technologies to
manufacture EN6115 bolts (one size) from an SPS Technologies developed
high-strength titanium alloy - SPS TITAN™ 761 to meet the 180-ksi (1250 MPa)
alloy steel performance requirements listed in EN6115.

Therefore, presented herein are the mechanical and metallurgical test data for
.2500-28 UNJF-3A pan-head, point-drive bolts manufactured by PCC Fastener
Division, Jenkintown, PA.

CONCLUSIONS:

All the fasteners tested met the mechanical property requirements specified on
AECMA drawing EN6115 and the fastener procurement specification EN6116:

For the coated ¼-28 x 1.195 bolts:

a. Tensile strength averaged 196,523 psi (1354 MPa) vs. an 180,000-psi

(1250 MPa) minimum requirement.

b. Shear strength averaged 122,454 psi (843 MPa) vs. a 108,000 psi
(740 MPa) requirement

c. Fatigue life successfully achieved 130,000 cycles (discontinue) vs. a

65,000-cycle average life requirement.

For the un-coated ¼-28 x 1.195 bolts:

d. Tensile strength averaged 203,931 psi (1406 MPa) vs. an 180,000-psi

(1250 MPa) minimum requirement.

e. Shear strength averaged 128,603 psi (886 MPa) vs. a 108,000 psi
(740 MPa) requirement

 REPORT NO. 4071

BACKGROUND:

A customer asked SPS Technologies to manufacture titanium alloy fastener

prototypes and to demonstrate that they could meet the performance requirements
for the same part made from alloy steel. The part configuration selected was
EN6115-4.

SPS Technologies had recently developed a high-strength titanium fastener

alloy, and had issued technical reports documenting the successful development of
large-diameter, 160-ksi (1100 MPa), tension-rated fasteners (SPS technical report
# 4049) and small-to-medium diameter, 180-ksi (1250 MPa), tension-rated
fasteners (SPS technical report # 4061). The intent of the present study was to
establish whether this new titanium alloy could be used to manufacture a protruding
head, point-drive fastener commonly made from 180-ksi (1250 MPa) alloy steel.

Titanium alloy aerospace fasteners have been manufactured for over 50 years.
The overwhelming majority of these are made from the work-horse alloy Ti-6Al-4V
(predominantly AMS 4967). It is generally recognized, however, that fasteners from
this alloy have size and strength limitations. The current Ti-6Al-4V industry bolt
specifications (NAS 621, NAS 4004, AS 7460, AS 7461) specify minimum tensile
strengths and double shear strengths of 160-ksi (1100 MPa) and 95-ksi (655 MPa),
respectively.

For the last half-century, aerospace fastener users have basically had to live
with these strength limitations. For years, fastener manufacturers have dreamed of
developing stronger titanium -alloy fasteners whose performance could match alloy
steel or CRES alloy fasteners. This would enable a direct one -for-one substitution
and produce a 35% to 40% weight savings, owing to titanium’s lower density.

Unfortunately, this never happened. A few other special-purpose, titanium-alloy

fasteners were commercialized, and these provided some strength improvement
over fasteners made from Ti-6Al-4V. By and large, however, these fasteners
tended to have significant manufacturing liabilities. In addition, while shear strength
might be improved in these fasteners, the tensile and fatigue strengths generally
were not. Therefore, direct substitution for heavier alloy fasteners remained an
unfulfilled goal.

4
 REPORT NO. 4071

There are other titanium alloys that have been developed over the years that do
have the ability to attain higher strengths. However, most of these do not ha ve
threaded fastener potential owing to formability problems and/or notch sensitivity.
That is, smooth-section properties may look attractive, but threaded properties are
significantly reduced.

SPS Technologies sought to develop a titanium alloy that could be used to

manufacture bolts over a wide range of sizes that would be capable of maintaining
the tensile, shear and fatigue strength requirements of alloy steel and CRES alloy
fasteners. This effort culminated in the development of SPS TITAN 761 alloy.

RECOMMENDATION:

Based upon the successful results herein and confirmation of customer support
to proceed further, it is recommended that the next step be to determine whether
larger diameter bolts – up to 1 inch manufactured from this high-strength titani um
alloy can meet the same EN6115/EN6116 technical requirements.

Our experience with this evaluation and previous SPS TITAN initiatives strongly
suggest this is feasible.

PROCEDURES:

MATERIAL:

The titanium alloy selected for manufacturing the subject fasteners was a
version of the material described by AMS 4958 (3Al-8V-6Cr-4Zr-4Mo). That is,
the material conformed to the chemistry requirements of AMS 4958, but bars
were processed by the raw material supplier to guidelines contained in SPS’
proprietary material specification SPS-M-761*.
The mill certificate for the raw material lot used in manufacturing the ¼”
diameter bolts is included in Appendix A.
The steel date identified by SPS Technologies is TB380E.

MANUFACTURING:

The ¼-28 x 1.195 bolts were manufactured on shop order number B02493-010.
Details of the major manufacturing operations are summarized below:

HEADING – The pan-head bolt configuration was forged per the guidelines
contained in MPP-F-010*.

HEAT TREATMENT – The ¼” diameter bolts were heat treated as one lot
per E0601*.

NECK FEATURE – The proprietary thread run-out neck was machined and
rolled per EN6115.

FILLET ROLLING – The head-to-shank fillets were rolled and evaluated per
MPP-I-024*.

THREAD ROLLING – The ¼-28 UNJF-3A threads were rolled after heat
treatment. Inspection found that the dimensions conformed to the
requirements of AS8879.

NON-DESTRUCTIVE TESTING – The bolts were Fluorescent Penetrant

Inspected 100% in accordance with ASTM E1417.

ALUMINUM COATING – A portion of the lot was left uncoated and another
portion of the lot was coated with NAS4006 aluminum-pigmented paint per
MPP-P-083*.

* Indicates an SPS internal and proprietary document – distribution prohibited.

MECHANICAL TESTING:

TENSILE TESTING – Coated and uncoated bolts were tested at room

temperature in accordance with the procedures of NASM 1312 – 8. The
requirement is specified in EN6115, Table 2.

DOUBLE SHEAR TESTING – Coated and uncoated bolts were tested at

room temperature in accordance with the procedures of NASM 1312 – 13.
The requirement is specified in EN6115, Table 2.

FATIGUE TESTING – Coated and uncoated bolts were tested at room

temperature in tension-tension fatigue in accordance with the procedures of
NASM 1312 – 11. Method “B” per EN6116 was used. The requirement is
specified in EN6115, Table 2.

TORSION CAPABILITY – HEXAGON SOCKET – Coated and uncoated

bolts were tested in accordance with procedures and requirements in
EN6116, Table A7.2.2.

METALLURGICAL TESTING:

MICROSTRUCTURE - Cross sections from the heads, bodies and threads

were excised, mounted in Bakelite, polished, etched and examined with the
aid of an optical microscope to assess material flow lines, grain size, and
overall micro structural condition. The polished specimens were etched by
swabbing with a solution comprising 2 ml HF + 5 ml H2 O 2 + 100 ml H2O.

TEST RESULTS:

The ¼-28 X 1.195 bolt tensile results are presented in Table I.

The ¼-28 X 1.195 bolt double shear results are presented in Table II.

The ¼-28 X 1.195 bolt fatigue results are presented in Table III.

The ¼-28 X 1.195 hexagon socket torsional capability test results are presented
here: 5 coated and 5 uncoated bolts satisfied the 30-inch pounds (3.390 N-mm)
requirement.

Per the EN6116 requirement, one sample was excised from a finished bolt and
checked for hydrogen content with a hydrogen determinator.
The sample measured 118 parts per million satisfying the 125 parts per million
maximum requirement.

The microstructures we re typical for beta titanium. The core microstructure

consisted of medium-sized beta grains; no primary alpha was present. Cold work is
apparent in the head-to-shank fillet region from the fillet rolling operation.
Continuous flow lines in the thread roots indicate threads were rolled after heat
treatment.

Representative photomicrographs of head-to-shank fillets, thread roots, and

bodies are presented in Figures 1 through 3.

DISCUSSION OF RESULTS:

Bolts were manufactured by traditional methods and equipment without incident.

They met the mechanical property requirements of AECMA drawing EN6115, alloy
steel values in Table 2 and fastener procurement specification EN6116.

This evaluation demonstrates the suitably of using SPS TITAN 761 titanium
alloy to replace alloy steel in point drive fasteners and still meet the alloy steel
performance requirements at a weight savings of 35%.

Note 1: The diameter measured at point I shall be less than or equal to the max. diameter TD.
Note 2: Check concentricity of diameters D (shank) and TD (thread) to avoid interference between the bolt thread
and hole when using tight interference fits.
Note 3: The maximum thread runout for oversizes is incremented by 0,25 mm.
